An Israeli missile has hit Iran, two US officials have told the BBC’s US partner CBS News.
Iranian state media is reporting that flights have been suspended over several cities, according to Associated Press.
Iran has been on high alert after Israel said it would respond to an Iranian attack against it on Saturday night
It would have been nice if this world wasn’t run by fucking children.
Epstein already proved that and allegedly a Mossad agent. How much blackmail does Bibi have on Biden?
Biden expressed his love for israel way before Netanyahu was a political candidate.
True dat… Biden, “I’m a Zionist,” knows his place.
Israel is doing its part by killing them all.
Demented sociopathic children. Normal children would do a better job.
The world would be a lot better off of it was, actually.
Fuck Netanyahu.
If he starts WW3 he can get fucked… though we should try and grant asylum to all current residents of Palestine and Isreal.

You can rest well that russian cunt Putin has already warmed up the engine for WW3
Team Rocket powered nuclear bomb will do it together.

Israel is not “the Jews”. You might think it’s pedantic but now is really not the time to make that generalisation.
As a Jew who is against Israeli apartheid and genocide, thank you.
Some Jews are absolute cunts. Most are decent people. Which makes Jews exactly the same as everyone else imo
I see you’ve met some of my relatives.
Sounds like some of my relatives, but I’m German. No assholes there…

Oh FFS. This had better be an extremely limited response to Iran’s response to Israel’s bombing of an embassy. Here’s hoping it’s just the same type of symbolic attack that Iran made last weekend - all show and no intent. Just Israel refusing to let anyone else have the last word.
Anything more serious and things are about to become very messy and even more expensive. Although it would explain why Israel is suddenly arranging to get dozens of jets from the US in the last month or so. Lord knows they don’t seem necessary if the only goal is to keep blowing up Palestinians.

Forgive what feels like a nitpick, but we should take a moment for wider historical scorn. WaPo at the end of March:
Last week, the State Department authorized the transfer of 25 F-35A fighter jets and engines worth roughly $2.5 billion, U.S. officials said. The case was approved by Congress in 2008, so the department was not required to provide a new notification to lawmakers.
Biden owns the fuckup, but it comes after all the shit Israel put the administrations of Dubya, Obama, and Individual 1 through, and after all the atrocities upon the Great March of Return and the other surges of conflict. The planes could fill another allies’ order, the MIC could get their warbucks, and Joey could have kicked the can down the road, but here we are.
That’s a fair point, no need to apologize for keeping me accurate. I had read and forgotten that detail honestly, because in my head I lump the two deals together - the other one being the new $18 billion contract for F-15s that Biden’s administration is seeking approval for currently. I think I mentally shorthand it to “arrangements for new jets going to Israel” but there is definitely detail involved as you point out.
Measured retaliation leads to measured retaliation leads to measured retaliation…
It’s fucking hard but Isreal suffered minimally from Iran’s bullshit aggression - Netanyahu could “be the bigger man” without losing any face.
Real leaders - real manly men - real strong people of any stripe - those are the people who have the strength to forgive and compromise.

That’s just a quid pro quo kickback between the corporatocracy.
“We’ll channel more tax payer money through your military industrial complex if you let us continue with our nationalist ethnostate genocide… We may even start another gulf war and channel trillion$ more”
It’s certainly not 300 drones and rockets.
Can we fucking not
The US was aware of the Israeli attack plans, according to CNN. If the US is shooting down Iranian missiles, why don’t they shoot down Israeli missiles as well? Nothing good will happen from any sort of missile exchange in that region.
Israelimissiles*American missiles
Lol
This guy hegemons 💪
So, are they going back to opposing the invasion of Rafah, then?
You know, seeing as how Israel just got concessions for promising not to do a thing, then immediately went and did the thing regardless.
Or does Biden just have a humilation fetish? Which fine, no kink-shaming here but maybe keep it in the bedroom.
I have to admit, the phrase ‘lifestyle democrat’ has a nice ring to it…
wild how Iran launched missiles at Israel and then was struck by Israeli missiles… the Israeli missiles weren’t launched, though. They just sprang into existence above Iran
Iran ATTACKS israel!
Iranian Generals DIED when STRUCK by missile in Consulate!
Importantly, Iran’s missiles did not strike Israel, they were shot down in flight.
The same way that a lot of Hollywood dicks were sucked. By Nancy Reagan
Wow, we’re actually actually defending Iran now?
Just ignoring the media bias?
Is that what we call history now? Jesus Christ guys, seriously pretending like Iran are good guys is just nuts.
Obviously not but the wording make it out that Iran’s attacked is “unprecedented” against Israel, despite being retaliatory, and Israel didn’t “attack” Iran but rather “responded”. I’m certainly not implying Iran is “good” but journalism is already telling you who is “innocent”.
Right? Like we all saw that Iran was going to for tat, and their attack was pretty much neutralized. At this point Israel is just accelerating the conflict.
I don’t want to believe our media is biased either, but like let’s take a moment and remember that we’ve been told the reason Iran and the Taliban hate us is because we have and love freedom. Like seriously, take a moment if you were alive and conscious in 2003 and what messaging we got then. It’s so stupid.
Inshallah
Irresponsible decision from Israel, the initial exchange seemed justified with no reason to escalate things.
It wasn’t justified by israel the first time either. Anyone with iq above room temperature knows Israel is doing all of this for a reason .
To drag the US into an Afghanistan-style quagmire conflict with Iran, something American evangelicals and far-right military gumbas have been chomping at the bit for since the Carter Administration?
John Bolton literally has made this his life’s mission and has been working non-stop for it
We don’t want to go to war in the middle east. You are 100 percent right that some conservatives have been after that forever. Luckily I hope that as a nation we have grown past policing the world and being involved by sending troops. We can’t handle another war right now.
Conservatives? Who is president right now?
Did you read the comment I responded to?
Yeah far right evangelicals. Aka Joe Biden.
Just gonna leave it at some mysterious Jewish plot without going into a rant about space lasers or whatever the popular conspiracy theories are these days?
Does this ramble have anything to do with what we are talking about?
You can’t fire 300 drones and ballistic missiles at a country and not expect a response back. It was so over the top they had to respond. The response is so mild I think we can all step back now
Welp…
I hope Kate Winslet has sex with me before I die
don’t worry i’m sure the us and uk will come out as forcefully against this as they did against iran right?
Listen, Israel has a right to exist, and part of Israeli’s existence is firing missiles at its neighbors, so maybe back off and stop being anti-Semitic about this why dontcha?
This is too subtle for the internet, or at least I hope it is
don’t worry im gay so i roll advantage on sarcasm checks
Yeah most likely. The reaction to Iran’s strike was to underline that it was against military targets and that they wouldn’t assist Israel in striking back.
So as long as they don’t help Iran hit back against Israel, then yeah the reaction will be the same.
I wish the EU would grow a backbone and tell the US to stop stoking fires in our backyard
Germany and Italy are also big on giving aid to Israel so Idk if the EU is going to be able to help either.
Germany pretty much makes it illegal to even say anything negative about Israel
It is not illegal. You will only get publicly humiliated, have your house raided on bullshit reasons and if you get any government funding for anything you did, you can say bye bye to that. Especially if you are jewish and dissenting to the zionist agenda. Jews are disproportionaly targeted by these measures. Because nothing protects Jews form antisemitism, like targeting Jews that “stepped out of line” in the eyes of the pro zionist government.
I don’t have the link handy but I read that Jews make up about 1% of the population of Germany and have been the accused in about 30% of the cases of antisemitism, lol.
I don’t disagree with you there. Labeling people as antisemetic and a Nazi has been used as a weapon for a long time to target anyone that went against the Zionist agenda.
Germany is also the second-largest provider of aid to Palestinians since 1948 and was the largest provider of food last year.
I wish the EU would fucking invade the US already. Either put us out of our misery or save us, either way, it stops our leaders from spreading the evil and murder around the globe.
Some capitalist will sell the USA for profit, just give them a little more time. They already tried once
A good Wikipedia dive, Smedley Butler seems an interesting person to read about.

Did Fallout release at the perfect time?
" I don’t want to set the world on fire, oh fuck it, yes I do." - Netanyahu
1997?
This is 53 years early according to the lore. Not sure if we can make it that long.
I think you mean 70 years late? That was definitely the 50s in the show.
No, the Great War in the Fallout universe happened in 2077. The 50s revival was just the fashion at that time.
Just like the 50s were a time when technological advances were spreading rapidly, the Great War happened during the time of technological breakthroughs like personal assistant robots and fusion power.
Ok, that does explain some things. But it seemed to me like the technology is all kind of slow and bulky. The mech suits, and the doc was able to outrun those turrets. I thought that was because it was the 50s when the war happened, but I guess not?
This is important, pinning it for now.
Let’s keep the discussion here and not post it 14 more times.
You heard it folks, 13 more times is ok!
:P
Lmao inverse whataboutism
Iran reporting that it was countered and “no damage”, but also not seeing a lot of reporting that Israel also struck more areas in Syria… wonderful
